About MEIJER, LIGHT ICE CREAM, BUTTER PECAN
Meijer Light Butter Pecan Ice Cream is a reduced-calorie frozen dessert from the Meijer store brand, designed to deliver the classic Southern butter pecan ice cream experience with a lower fat and calorie profile. The base uses milkfat and nonfat milk, with maltodextrin and lactitol (a sugar alcohol) replacing a portion of the sugar content to reduce caloric density. Sucralose provides additional sweetness without calories. Pecans are roasted in cottonseed oil with butter and salt — real pecans present in meaningful quantity. Cellulose gel and cellulose gum serve as texture stabilizers, carrageenan prevents ice crystal formation, and annatto provides the warm golden color.
At 194 calories per 100 grams (approximately 130 calories per 67 g serving), this is a notably lower-calorie option compared to standard full-fat ice cream. Fat is 7.46 g per 100 g versus the 10-14 g typical of premium versions. Fiber is 1.5 g per 100 g, partially from polydextrose-adjacent ingredients and lactitol. Major allergens include dairy (milkfat, nonfat milk, butter) and tree nuts (pecans). Lactitol is a sugar alcohol that may cause digestive discomfort in sensitive individuals when consumed in excess.
Meijer Light Butter Pecan is a solid private-label reduced-calorie ice cream option for those managing caloric intake who still want the rich, nutty character of a classic butter pecan. Available at Meijer Midwest supercenters.
